Reasons to be cheerful #1
Here's another reason to be cheerful, to offset all the misery listed below. Bale Mountains National Park - what a place.
I've just spent four days with a film crew as they did a piece on the biggest distribution of malaria nets in Africa's history - more than 20 million will be handed out across the country over the next few years. It is the kind of scenery that it is impossible to catch on camera.
And I can't believe I have spent the past years moaning about the rainy season. It is clearly the best time of year to be in Ethiopia (as long as it doesn't flood). You get Old Testament-style thunderstorms; fresh, fresh air and greenery so intense it looks like it came off one of those Technicolor postcards from the 60s.
